I respect Ford a lot more after this huge debacle. They were basically saying "sure... we could USE the money, but we don't really NEED it." Weren't they just asking for pre-approval for a small line of credit just in case?
Chrysler has basically said they will pull out if Canada won't subsidize labour costs. Canada replied by saying that they weren't going to treat Chrysler any differently than they are treating any other company, and pretty much said if you want to leave, go ahead... because we won't do what you're asking for.
And yeah, I don't understand the union mentality of "I would rather lose my job in principle than take a pay cut." Since when is having NO job better than making 10% less an hour when you're already grossly overpaid for what you do?
